Turn on the power and check operation of the fan. The fan is controlled by the use of the pull chain as follows:
one pull = high speed
two pulls = medium speed
three pulls = low speed
four pulls = off
For proper functions, ensure that the chain is pulled down fully and released each time.
NOTE: Leave pull chain switch in “high speed” position when using optional wall control.
The slide switch on the side of the switch housing controls forward or reverse rotation. Make sure switch is not stuck
between forward and reverse positions.
I M P O RTA N T: To prevent damage or cause injury, be sure that fan is switched to off and blades have stopped moving
completely before attempting to change direction of ro t a t i o n .

1. If fan will not start: Check main and branch circuit breakers and/or fuses. Check line wire connections to fan and switch
housing wiring. Make sure forward/reverse switch is set to one or the other position, not stuck in between.
2. If fan is noisy: Check and make sure that all screws in motor housing are snug (but not over tight). Check that the
screws securing blade brackets to the motor are tight. Check that wire connectors in switch housing are not rattling
against each other or the interior wall of the switch housing. Check that all glassware is finger tight and that bulb(s) are
well held in the sockets, if a light kit is used. Check that the canopy is firmly attached to hanging bracket and not vibrating
against ceiling.
3. If fan wobbles: Check that all blades are firmly screwed into blade arms. Check that all blade arms are firmly secured to the
m o t o r. Check to make sure that light kit (if present) is firmly attached to switch housing and that all glassware and shades
a re fastened pro p e r l y. Wobble can also result from even the smallest deviations in distance from blade tip to blade tip - if
m e a s u rements from blade tip to blade tip are not equal, loosen screws connecting blade to blade arm bracket one at a time
and adjust blade(s) so that distances are equal. Interchanging adjacent blades may redistribute mass and result in smoother
o p e r a t i o n . Blade arms can be bent slightly to restore same pitch to all blades if a blade is different than the other blades
when viewed edge on.
NOTE: Wobbling can occur if the fan is hung in the direct path of an air duct.
Forward/Reverse Direction:
Forward
is a counterclockwise rotation of the blades
when viewed from beneath the fan. This will create a
downward breeze that can be felt below the fan. This
is the normal direction for the fan to run when the
weather is warm.
Reverse
(clockwise) will draw air up through the blades
and towards the ceiling, down the walls, and into the
living space during the cooler months.
WARM MONTHS
Forward (counterclockwise)
COOL MONTHS
Reverse (clockwise)
IMPORTANT: To prevent damage or cause injury, be sure that fan is switched to off and blades have stopped moving
completely before attempting to change direction of rotation.
